Before my garden walk I also had the treat of witnessing this chap with his pigeon-scaring Harris Hawk in Paternoster Square. Intriguing fact: the males used as avian bouncers are smaller and less aggressive than the females. (Cue a chorus of uh-huhs… 😹)

Fabulous sculpture of ‘King Arthur’ at Tintagel that cleverly hints at his legendary status. (We don’t really need the sniffy explainer from English Heritage that ‘it doesn’t represent one person but the general history of the site’.) Don’t mess with the magical!

With the weather set to improve next week (says the Met Office..) I have fired up my Secret City Gardens walk for 1115am Saturday 27 April. We’ll see a medieval cloister garden, a blitzed church where a headless co**se was buried, the lakeside gardens of the Barbican and more. Horticulture and history in one entertaining package! See bio for link 😎 (flash sale on now) Chin chin!
